Thursday afternoon I met with my new oncologist...Dr. Kellogg. I am glad I switched to him. When I was leaving my appt. I was starting to get a head ache. By the time I got back home, I was feeling sort of crappy...head ache, slight body aches...
Long story short, that night I started running a fever. I called and talked to Dr. Kellogg and he told me to go to the ER. We got to the ER around 10pm, and they didn't take me back until 1 am. They decided to admit me and took me up to my room at 4am. It was a long night.
My white blood cell count was 0.5 this time and they are still waiting for the blood cultures to come back to determine if what I have is viral or not. My bet is viral. I feel exactly the same as I did 3 weeks ago...fever, body aches, chills, head ache. I imagine I'll be in here until my counts come up again.
Curt brought Luke and Ty by today to see me. I was so happy to see them! Luke kept saying, "Awww...Momma!" and just as they were leaving he said, "I have so much joy with you, Mom". That was so stinking cute! I love my boys and can't wait to get back home so that I can be with them.
